Popis

This is a lovely studio apartment, with two terraces, overlooking the Pacific (Bay of Valparaiso) and this crazy city, which became part of the UNESCO world heritage in 2003.

The studio has a comfortable bed-sitting room with a writing desk overlooking the sea, a neat kitchen area with a galley table, a tiled bath, enough closet space - and those two terraces. One terrace is on the roof and provides a birds eye view of Valparaiso, the other is at the entrance to the apartment with room for a sofa, a hammock and a small table - partially rooved to protect from the sun.

Located on the first hill above the city center, the studio is close enough to reach downtown and all main attractions, groceries, universities etc. easily and quickly. But it is also far enough away to provide a nice quiet space where to escape. Access is by car, on foot - a mere 250 steps up a staircase - or by collective taxi from the Plaza Ecuador below, or by funicular railway, the one called Espiritu Santo (Holy Spirit). Public transport is also 250 steps downhill and very good: buses, metro, lots of collective and private taxis.

The neighborhood is called Cerro Bellavista and includes La Sebastiana, the home of Pablo Neruda and now a museum and community center, just up the street, and more and more good restaurants and little cafes and handicraft shops. However, it is also a plain old residential neighborhood and not overrun by tourists like Cerro Alegre or Cerro Concepcion. Cerro Bellavista contained its authentic charm and lets you dive into Valparaíso's daily life during your stay. You will feel like a local immediately!

The studio is unique! for its beautiful views, its finishing (all recycled Oregon pine doors and woodwork) and the terraces that let you live half in, half out - and float above a city that is both lovely and slightly mad.

You will be welcomed by Cornelia and Johannes. We fill your fridge according to your wishes before you arrive, so you can survive for a day without rushing to the supermarket. We would also invite you to a beer in our German restaurant (200 meters from your apartment) for getting started.
